Tottenham vs Leeds arrives on Monday at 20:00 BST with both clubs moving in the right direction at the wrong end of the table. Tottenham have climbed out of the bottom three, while Leeds have pushed themselves into position to potentially secure safety after six unbeaten league matches.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium pressure

Tottenham’s home form remains the sharp edge in this meeting. They have won only two times at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this season, collected 11 home points and scored 20 home goals in 17 matches, while losing 10 league matches at home in successive seasons.

A further defeat would match the club record of 11 home league losses set in the 1991-92 season. That leaves Roberto De Zerbi’s side with a clear split in their season: they sit third in the away form table behind Arsenal and Manchester City, and 70.3% of their points have come on the road.

Leeds United and Daniel Farke

Daniel Farke has taken Leeds into a position where Sunday evening could bring safety if West Ham lose to Arsenal. Leeds are unbeaten in their last six league matches and have won 32 points since the start of December, losing only four top-flight matches in 22 games over that stretch.

Their away numbers back up the run. Leeds have gone six away matches without defeat and won at Old Trafford during that sequence, while they have scored 47 league goals this season and posted three or more goals in eight different matches.

Leeds against Tottenham

The recent edge in form does not erase the history at Spurs. Leeds have not won in their last six visits to Tottenham dating back to 2001, and they have won only two of their last 15 meetings with Tottenham in all competitions.

That gives Monday’s match a narrow but real line of pressure: Tottenham need their road form to travel into a home setting that has not held up, while Leeds arrive with enough points and enough recent control to turn survival from a chase into a result. For both clubs, the table could move again before the night is over.
